Cooper's hawk in Land Park?
开云体育This hawk flew into our Land Park backyard this afternoon. I think it is a Cooper’s Hawk. Correct? (You can catch a glimpse of its tail extended in flight in the third photo) |

FYI
On 7/29 there were a couple " wild type" Muscovy Ducks (females) at McKinley Park Pond, presumably escapees. Sorry for the late post. |

Hummingbird time
I now have four species of Hummingbird at my feeder this week.? Anna's. Black-chinned, Rufous, and showing up for the first time in many years, the Calliope below.? The picture of the male is not very good for ID, in that the rosy chest is entirely due to reflected light from the feeder. Ever see a hummer blink? Troy |

Bell's Sparrow
The Bell's Sparrow is not a common bird in our area and I was lucky to see one at the Pine Hill Preserve on April 17.?
Subhash
The following description is from the All About Birds website:
The Bell’s Sparrow is a neat, gray-headed sparrow emblematic of California’s coastal sage and chaparral. They also occur in Baja California, the Mojave Desert, and on San Clemente Island, California (a federally threatened subspecies). Like the very similar Sagebrush Sparrow, these birds spend much of their time foraging for insects and seeds on the ground underneath shrubs. In spring males sing a fast mix of trills and chips from the tallest perches they can find.

Re: Hummingbird Torpor
开云体育Do they normally hang upside down like that? I always pictured them perched on a limb.? On Apr 16, 2022, at 11:05 AM, Lynn Maginnis <lynnmaginnis@...> wrote:

Re: Hummingbird Torpor
开云体育WOW!!! What a great shot, Troy! Thanks for sharing! We have Anna’s flitting all about our yard all year round and I’ve never seen that either! I was especially concerned for them when we had that hard freeze for four days a few months ago. Good to know they can do that to get through those especially cold days!Di On Apr 15, 2022, at 5:55 PM, Troy Edson-Smith <troyes@...> wrote:

Hummingbird Torpor
Looked out the window on the cold Wednesday morning, and saw perched on our stucco what I assumed was a bat.? No, it was an Anna's in torpor.? First time I've seen it.? It is upside down with claws locked onto the stucco.? It stayed there until about 2pm, and then flew away. Regards, Troy |
